Journal

Happy Bush is a Screw Up Day! Or, should it be, Happy Bush is a Liar Day? One or the other would fit there.. not sure what to call the day though. When it came to the Iraqi war, Bush lied to the American people, or he just completely screwed up as President.. not sure which to call it, though the Administration seems to like to lie and mislead (will go more into detail there later).. only thing they seem good at. Anyway.. thought this post I found on a website called Conservatives for Kerry, sums up what to call today:

"Bush's Lies: A Sad One Year Anniversary
Thursday, March 18, 2004

This quote is for those who are still wondering whether it's really just a nasty extreme thing to say that Bush Lied to get us into a war. I mean, that's just crazy liberal stuff, isn't it?

Let Bush speak for himself. One year ago today:

Text Of Bush Speech On Iraq
WASHINGTON, March 17, 2003

"The Iraqi regime has used diplomacy as a ploy to gain time and advantage. It has uniformly defied Security Council resolutions demanding full disarmament.... Intelligence gathered by this and other governments leaves no doubt that the Iraq regime continues to possess and conceal some of the most lethal weapons ever devised.... Under Resolutions 678 and 687, both still in effect, the United States and our allies are authorized to use force in ridding Iraq of weapons of mass destruction.... Today, no nation can possibly claim that Iraq has disarmed."

Bush didn't say "Some intelligence suggests that Hussein could have W.M.D., although there remains doubt." Bush said there was "no doubt," and that "no nation can possibly claim that Iraq has disarmed."

The alternatives before us now are:

1) Bush was ignorant of the highly equivocal and downright doubting reports his own administration had produced;

2) Bush was incompetent enough not to understand such reports even after having been presented with them; or

3) Bush lied to the American people to take them to war.

In each of these circumstances, George W. Bush has proven himself unfit for the presidency."

I'm thinking of going to the store or something, so that's it for now. Wanted to share that though, since I found it, and considering it's a conservative site, can't claim bias. ;)

Don't know why, but I kept thinking today was Friday.. really annoying. And yes, I know I'm posting this on Friday since it's past midnight, but all during the day I was thinking it was, and now thinking it's Saturday. Weird.

Happily the Syracuse men's basketball team won it's opening game in the NCAA's today.. though, stressful game. Too close at the end, but they won.. so.. blood pressure shouldn't be up anymore, lol.

That's all for now.

So, the Eagles got T.O., quite happy about that. Since, the only reason they didn't make the super bowl this year, was because their recievers completely sucked ass. Think there was like, what 7 dropped passes, and 3 interceptions, because the recievers couldn't stick to their routes? Pretty awful. Though, losing their cornerbacks, and such.. makes it not look good, but hopefully the offense can better carry them this year.

There has been some talk about who should be John Kerry's running mate, for the election, well a lot of talk. One idea I have heard floating around, I think is making more and more sense. He should select John McCain, who wouldn't have to leave his party, because two parties can run on the same ticket. Now, while I don't know much about John McCain, besides it seems like he isn't mindless, I heard someone comment on how a ticket like that, could be a means to try to help unite this country. Currently, with Bush the great divider, the rift just seems to grow. A ticket with those two, could hopefully heal that rift, and help rejoin the country as one, and we won't have to hear about all this red state, blue state crap. That kind of stuff sounds better when it's directed towards the civil war.

Oh well.. doubt that will ever happen.

In other news, we have this new scale, that supposedly tells you what your body fat is. You put in your height, age, and have to stand on it bare footed, cuz it like sends an electrical current through you, to get body fat precent. I don't really think it's that accurate though, because according to it, last week I had 21 % body fat, and today, I have 12% body fat. So, I lost about 9% of my body fat, in under a week? Only lost about 4 pounds.. so that really doesn't make sense, lol. Though, I didn't like the scale when it said the 21%, but now.. 12%.. I like it. Who cares if it's wrong. ;)

Talking about weight.. I should really eat something soon, but why eat when not hungry? Stomach hasn't been feeling too, happy. Not like sick, it gets weird. Like, it's not there and doesn't need anything. When it's feeling that way, and I eat, it feels like I've put food into something, that maybe isn't supposed to, or.. hmm.. like it wasn't ready for food. Not a feeling of being too full, just weird. I am drinking water at least, gotta stay hydrated.

I'm cold again... but still is winter. Guess I need more body fat to keep myself warm! Icky.. lol. Me have a complex about that? Not yet.. but could develop one. ;)

So, just put in a links page to my CD/GF section.. figured I needed to get around to it, and I had noticed some people coming to my webpage having used either or in search engines, so thought it'd be nice to actually get something helpful up for those people.

Not much else I feel like saying, I am feeling rather cold.. but, no biggie considering it's winter, still.

Anyway, I should get off to bed, or find something to distract me from bed, so night.

Hmm.. I'm really not sure why I'm making this entry. Maybe just to make one? Right now, really not sure what to talk about. Think I could do some updating, might at the end of this, but right now, think I'd rather ramble a little.

Yesterday, in a friend's journal, she mentioned she was addicted to someone, later she said she was kinda kidding about that.. which is all fine and good, and I can understand that. But, I did mention in a comment, that I didn't think being addicted to someone, was something healthy.. and mentioned how it can lead to the other person controlling and having power of you. I never claimed her boyfriend actually did this stuff. I was just simply stating my opinion on that.

So, guess what happens? First, a friend of the boyfriend jumps on me, saying how I always say negative things about their relationship, which is odd, considering I never have. My comment wasn't even directed at their relationship, more just a concern, and I don't see how being concerned about a friend, is a negative thing. So, she comes back and says she meant to say, I always say negative things about him. Again, this is something I haven't done. I did mention my concerns to the friend, when she mentioned him in her journal, as the guy who broke her heart twice.. about getting back together with him. But, this was before they were together, and I can hardly say that is always saying negative things about him.

Guess what happens next? The boyfriend needs to jump in. He tells me he doesn't like me, that she is "MY girlfriend" (his words), tells me I am a very negative person, says I'm obsessed with her, that I want her addicted to me, and that their relationship doesn't concern me in the least.

By this point, I'm wondering what bizarro World I'm in, and how the heck I got there!

So, I tried my best to respectfully respond to those nutty ravings.. the part of me that loves an ol' fashion flame war on message boards, I tried to keep out of it. I did ask if caring about a friend in his mind, was a negative thing. I said it was sad not to like someone, you don't know. I mentioned I thought he needed to work out his jealousy and insecurity issues, since it seemed like me being her friend bothered him, and that I wasn't obsessed with her. Did point out I didn't want her addicted to me, and mentioned my opinion about being addicted to someone, was a general statement, and not directed at them. Pointed out their relationship does concern me in the least, since I'm a friend, and mentioned if he thought it didn't, then he didn't understand friendship. I also pointed out the way he was reacted, showed warning signs that he could be the kind of person who is jealous, possessive, and possibly abusive (I have a degree in psychology, have studied domestic abuse, so I know what I'm talking about). I didn't claim he was though. And ended that he should be happy she has friends who care, that I wasn't bashing their relationship, and that I was glad she was happy.

So, guess what happens now? The attacks continue! Now he says she doesn't like me either, and he isn't jealous, just wants me to leave her alone and not comment about things that concern me? Guess the whole friendship thing, missed it's mark. And he said he didn't need to know me, to dislike me. Said if he didn't like someone at first, he never does.. umm.. okay? I think that's mature. And says she wishes me to go away? She hasn't expressed that desire. I was also informed by him, I have a lot of growing up to do. Riiiight. Though he did add, he didn't control her.. and good, I'm glad, too bad I never claimed he did. Not too bad so far, right? Well, it gets even weirder now. He mentioned, since he gave off warning signs of being jealous, possessive, and abusive (I said possible here), that he will add violent (err.. wtf?). Said he gets violent against people who don't like, who don't know when to shut their mouths? Boy.. and this from the one telling me I need to grow up? He then adds, that this is the internet, and my opinion is worthless to him.. though, he will be violent? Err.. bizarro worlds are bizarre. Then, just to finish things off, he tells me he is "something much much much more dangerous" than a wizard.. and again mentions he doesn't like me.

I'm just not sure what to make of all this.. it is just so insane. It sounds like he is threatening me with violence or something, while telling me my opinion is worthless to him, and my opinion wasn't even directed at him.. so, why is he getting so nutty? I don't want to rush to judgment here (like he has for me).. maybe he just overreached, but why put up such a fuss, over something that wasn't even directed at him? Is there more there, maybe some truth to the things I said?

I hope not.. and don't want to think so.. but blah. Guess this ramble took a bit more form that I thought it would, just needed to talk about this.. and if the mentioned friend is reading this, hopefully no offense is taken.. I just needed a way to express this. This, it just seems so insane to me.. boggles my mind.

*shrugs*

Well, I did respond to him.. trying to be reasonable, but so far.. seems like reason is the one thing that doesn't fit here. Sigh.. sure to be more on this later.. especially if things go boom.. bleck.

I'm tired! Though, considering I never went to bed last night.. guess I have good reason, huh?

I ended up staying up a bit later than I had wanted to, well a lot later. Looking through some people's journals, some websites, and some more political type sites.. and well.. meh, I just got a big urge to get some of the more political based articles I've had in my head, written. So, instead of going to bed, I wrote an article showing that the whole argument that marriage has always been between a man and a woman, is false. Got a lot of examples of same-sex marriages throughout history, just not sure the part I wrote in, between each example actually sounds good. I'm gonna post it eventually, but wanna look it over again, and I do wanna get some other articles written. Sadly, I'm thinking about adding a section to this site, more politically based, with articles I've written! Hmm.. I still have two sections I've started, but haven't finished.

But, going back to something I mentioned in the last entry here, the lack, impulse control.. can sometimes be a good thing, I guess you could say, when I can focus it into something that's more constructive, than like playing x-box all day, lol. Actually took me 4 hours to get the one article to where it currently is. Hmm.. to put it this way, I think that's two sides of a coin. On one side, you overdo things you enjoy until you grow sick of them, and on the other, you can buckle done and get work done, when it's something you want to get done, and stick to it, till it's finished, or nearly so. And, today when I flipped the coin, I got the constructive side.

Although, I really haven't gotten much of anything else done today.. did record Days of Our Lives for my mom, since she is in Mexico and can't watch it. Played x-box, for a little while. Rest of the day, was drifting in and out of sleep.. oy. Don't like doing that, it wastes so much time.

Anyway.. I don't feel completely here, if this made no sense, suck it. =)

I can hold my breath for 2 minutes, and 40 seconds! I think that's good? Think I could go even longer as well.. but it's not exactly something that pleasant to do. But, do think that's good for someone not in good shape and who doesn't practice doing it.

I didn't touch my computer Saturday, kinda nice to take a break from it every so often.. though, it wasn't really a break, but more a my-brother-is-here-for-the-week-and-brought-his-x-box kind of thing. I'm one of those kind of people, who when they find something they like a lot, they overdose on it, till getting sick of it. Really bad habbit or impulse, something sometimes I can control fairly well, and sometimes fail horribly on. The x-box would be an example of something I'm failing horribly on, at the moment, but in my self defense, it is kinda of harder to resist the urge to binge on it, since I know it's here only for a week, and I won't be touching it again till summer. Still.. not the best excuse in the world, so I'll just have to try to balance it out, with using and not. Would like to do some more work on my site this week, and maybe try to write some politically based articles.

On other impulse control news, my dad is going to try and quit smoking. My mom is gone for the week, to visit mexico.. for like vacation, and with her being gone, my dad is now the only smoker in the house, and he says it will be easier to quit, because of that. So I'm in charge of hiding the rest of the smokes. Hmm.. and on Friday, when my sister stopped by for the weekend, I was in charge of hiding the peanut butter, because she said she couldn't control herself around that.. doesn't fit with her diet, and she has lost quite a bit of weight. Looking good! But not in a hick kind of sisterly good.. no offense to any hicks! =D

So.. guess I shouldn't feel too bad about a little lack of control either? Seems to run in the family, or maybe it's just a human thing.

Hmm.. what else. Think that's about it. Bit late to do some more updating, and I still have other things I want to get done before bed, so.. good bye.
